37. (III) A stunt driver wants to make his car jump over 8 cars parked side by side below a horizontal ramp (Fig. 3–41). (a) With what minimum speed must he drive off the hori- zontal ramp? The vertical height of the ramp is 1.5 m above the cars and the horizontal distance he must clear is 22 m. (b) If the ramp is now tilted upward, so that “takeoff angle" is 7.0° above the horizontal, what is the new minimum speed? 22 m -1.5 m - Must clear this point! AAA. FIGURE 3-41 Problem 37.
